HC Deb 19 October 1981 vol 10 c79W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what is the total staff of the International Atomic Energy Authority concerned with inspection and control of nuclear installations around the world to enforce the provisions of the non-proliferation treaty; how many countries have accepted inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency; and what is the total number of installations subject to inspection.

Mr. John Moore:

The International Atomic Energy Agency has 133 inspectors to carry out inspection duties in countries with nuclear facilities. Safeguards agreements have been concluded and are in force between the Agency and 87 countries. Of this number, 36 do not yet have any nuclear facilities which require safeguarding. Inspections are made at 789 installations.
